Orioles DH Aubrey Huff is having a career year, hitting .311 with 32 HR in 147 games this season. Several teams will be pursuing a solid first baseman this offseason, and may look to Huff instead of spending the big bucks on someone like Mark Teixeira. The Orioles could definitely use the prospects, as well the extra spending cash to improve in 2009. If they were able to clear half his 2009 salary (8 million dollars), they would be able to go after a veteran pitcher. As for teams that could pursue Huff, the Angels, Yankees, Braves, and possibly the Brewers, if they are able to unload Prince Fielder.
